Bean Blue Lake Pole

Phaseolus vulgaris limensis

Bean Blue Lake Pole is a popular, highly productive variety of pole bean known for its tender, stringless pods. These beans grow on vigorous, climbing vines that can reach up to 6-8 feet, making them ideal for vertical gardening. The beans are harvested when they are about 6 inches long and have a crisp, flavorful texture. Blue Lake Pole beans thrive in warm, sunny conditions and well-drained soil. They are perfect for fresh eating, canning, or freezing, providing a steady supply throughout the growing season.

How to Germinate Bean Blue Lake Pole

How to Germinate Bean Blue Lake Pole (Phaseolus vulgaris limensis)

  • Sow seeds directly outdoors after the last frost date when soil temperatures are above 60°F (16°C).
  • Plant seeds 1 inch deep and 3-4 inches apart in rows that are 24-36 inches apart.
  • Set up a trellis or support structure for the pole beans to climb as they grow.
  • Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged until seeds germinate, usually within 7-14 days.
  • Choose a sunny location with well-draining soil for the best germination and growth.
  • Thin seedlings to 6-8 inches apart once they are a few inches tall to prevent overcrowding.

Additional Tips

  • Blue Lake Pole Beans thrive in full sun and require a support structure like a trellis or pole to grow vertically.
  • Water the plants deeply once a week, more often in hot, dry conditions to keep the soil moist.
  • Apply mulch around the base of the plants to retain moisture and suppress weeds.
  • Harvest beans regularly to encourage continuous production throughout the growing season.
  • Avoid overhead watering to reduce the risk of fungal diseases; instead, water at the base of the plants.
